I her with all of the rooms in the old
2" building o:cnpied, and three In the new.
I but owing to the increased attendance
the board in January were compelled to
furnish another room and employ an
other teacher, making twelve rooms now
occupied and some of them badly
crowdnd.
Both schools have been under the)
supervision of Prof, l'rinitle who has bad
to combine leaching and supervision,
this, owing lo the distance of the Seventh
street school hti made hi dtitiwa very
arduous and the results not so satisfac
tory lo bitnlf. This is a situation that
must obtain, untif WO ara strong enough
to employ, a superintendent uri.t w.l
havrf nothing to do but tmpfriitt-nd.
Notwithstanding thia our schools !.
been doing very fair work and have '.!
runaing along with very little friction,
much less indeed than irigbt be expected
under all the circumstance.
The corps of teachers now employed
is twelve at the following salaries: One
principal and superintendent at $1300
per annum: two assistants at $75 per
annum ; two subordinate teachers at ftlO
per month; seven subordinate teachers
at $50 per month.
Two years ago in order to pr vent so
i many of our best teachers being drawn
from us by the offer of much better sal
aries in the Portland schools, the board
adopteJ the plan of making the maxi
mum salary of subordinate teachers, o0
per month, after two years services, tho
minimums salary being $50 per month
for first two years, under the arrange
ment we bave two teachers who draw
maximum salary as noted above.
The directors are aware and regret
that there are weak places in the schools
bat this is a condition that obtains in all
Schools of any size, and always will until

BOABD OF DiaKCTOB 8 REPORT.
To the Taxpayers of District Xo. 62, the
undersigned Directors, beg leave to sub
mit the following annual report:
In accordance with the instructions
givuns at the last annual meeting the
board proceeded to the erection of a
school house on the Seventh street prop
erty, Plans were adopted, bids duly
advertised for and the contract finally
awarded to Thos. Wilson & Co.. for
$8078, and the building was completed
for that sum, with the only additional
charge of $91.50 for extra concrete in
foundation wall.
Thus the entire expense of the work
including plans, specifications and the
architects percentage waa kept within
the $9000 to which we were limited.
Pending the construction of the house,
$0000 of bonds were negotiated at par
bearing Interest at 6 per cent, this
amount with the money on land has paid
all the expense ot the new building, and
we congratulate the district in having
securred at a very reasonable coat a
superior school house, commanding an
attractive outside appearance, pleasant
roomy and convenient in the interior.
Our schools opened on the 2d of Octo
$2192 38
2000 00 :
10UOOO We will venture to add here thatonr
' 00 ; schools are growing in importance and
require much more attention from the
board of directors than in the past,
more time indeed than moot directors
have to spare and many matters corn .
np that are perplexing as well as an
noying, but the directors have to meet
them juH the same, an J since they do not
get anything for their services they
should at least be free from unfair criti
cism. Permit me here, as retiring memb er,
to bespeak for the board with the new
member, whoever be may be, yonr
hearty consideration and support.
For the statistics of the schools we
beg to refer you to the report of the prin
cipal. As we were unable to levy any tax
last year, the annual meeting author
ized the board to borrow sufficient money
to carry on the schools for the year.
.Under this order the board have in
curred debts to the amount of $3167.
Had we raised the usual tax last year
we would bave had no floating debt,
but a balance on hand.
For the details of financial matters we
beg to refer you to the clerk's report.
Inasmuch aa the tax voted at the
special meeting is insufficient to main
tain the schools for the entire year we
recommend that this meeting authorize
the board to borrow enough to make np
the deficiency.
In view of the fact tbat we now have
two school bouses, we suggest tbat this
meeting give to each of them some appro
priate name, something that will be
more euphonious thau the mere name
of a street ; give them each a name that
will awaken recollections of some who
have passed on before us but whose
memories we delight to honor.
To this end we would recommend that
the old . school be called the Barclay
school in honor of Dr. Barclay, a pioneer
of pioneers, a man of sterling worth and
integrity, full of public spirit, but especial
interested in our public schools.
In like manner wa recommend that
the new achool be named the Easthaui
in memory of the late E. L. Eastharu,
not a pioneer but native born, in early
life a teacher of schools, always deeply
interested in school work and in addi
tion one who did more to arouse the dor
mant energies of Oregon City and develop
the latent powers of the Willamette
Fulls than all his predecessors combined.
Let then these two schools stand and
he known as the monuments of Dr.
Foioes Barclay and Edward L. Eastham.

Directors-,,
principal's report.
To tub Board of Directors:
Gentlemen In compliance with, a
custom of the past, I have the honor of
submitting the following report of the
condition and progress of the public
schools of Oregon City, as shown by the
enrollment, attendance and punctuality
of pupils.
The whole number of pupils registered
during the school year ending February
23, 1894, was 723 or 75 per cent of the
entire number in the district of school
concluded on sixth page.
